Handcrafted bone thread winder inspired by Viking Birka finds. Genuine bone weaving tablet for tablet weaving, braiding, and crafts.
Authentic Viking Textile Tool Inspired by Birka: This bone thread winder is a historically inspired textile tool from Birka finds, one of the most important Viking Age trading centers. Crafted from ethically sourced genuine bone, it displays the materials used by Norse artisans in textile work. Compact and durable at approximately 2.5 mm thick, it connects modern makers directly to early medieval weaving traditions.
Used throughout the Viking Age, such tools helped in managing yarn and warp threads during weaving and braiding, making them essential medieval weaving tools for practical and ceremonial textile production.
Functional Design for Weaving & Thread Management: Designed to keep threads neatly wound and tangle-free, this winder gives excellent control during tablet weaving, braiding or knitting projects. Its ergonomic shape helps in comfortable handling, suitable for beginners and experienced artists. Often used as a weaving tablet, it helps maintain tension, reducing interruptions during work.
Handcrafted Bone with Historical Character: Each piece is individually hand-carved from natural bone, resulting in subtle variations in texture.
This is ideal for crafting, LARP, history demonstrations, or as a meaningful addition to a Viking collection.
